I started a blog for this year called leap beer. I'm going to drink 366 different kinds of beer over the course of the year and blog about it. I'm trying to get as much of the local brews as I can to help get them some exposure. I've got a list of breweries on the island, but I was hoping the sfbc forumers could help me out with the list. Here's which ones I have so far.

Surgenor Brewing in Comox
Wolf Brewing Comp in Nanaimo
Longwood Brew Pub in Nanaimo
Tofino Brewery in Tofino
Craig Street Brew Pub in Duncan
All the rest are in victoria
Lighthouse Brewing
Phillips Brewing Co.
Vancouver Island Brewing Co.
Canoe Brewpub, Marina and Restaurant
Spinnakers Gastro Brewpub & Guesthouse
Swans Buckerfields Brewery
Hugo's Grill and Brewhouse
Driftwood Brewing Company
Moon Under Water
Hoyne Brewing Co.

Thats what I have so far. What I'm hoping to find out is if there are any others in comox valley, maybe on the gulf islands. Or north island even.
I want to get to as many of them as I can and blog about it.

Feel free to check out the blog http://leapbeer.wordpress.com and let me know what you think.

Also, please post me your favorite beer. I'm interested. For me, the two penny ale from longwood brew pub sticks out in my mind, but there are so many that I like.

Thanks folks
 
I've drank more pipers than I have lucky. And I've never bought lucky, ever. I don't plan on it either.

Where im from you only drink lucky if you are poor or have a problem!
 
My go to choices are Blue Buck by Phillips, Slipstream by Phillips, Race Rocks by Lighthouse, Driftwood Ale by Driftwood.
 
I've been drinking more Bowen Island and Shaftesbury lately ... not sure what's up, but since summer it's been the cheapest beer in the liquor store, even cheaper than lucky, and it's pretty good! I like the cream ale.

Good luck on your 366 beer quest, that is a noble pursuit!
 
Lucky is Bear Grylls approved..
